Path traced by a moving particle in space is called trajectory of the particle. Shape of trajectory is decided by the
forces acting on the particle. When a coordinate system is associated with a particle’s motion, the curve equation in
which the particle moves [y = f(x)] is called equation of trajectory. It is just giving us the relation among x and y coordinates
of the particle i.e. the locus of particle. To find equation of trajectory of a particle, find first x and y coordinates of
the particle as a function of time and eliminate the time factor.
